Killed #3 yesterday. I think I’ve killed all 2 year olds but oh well it’s been a fun season!

Killed my 3rd bird of the year this morning , I’ll get the story and some pics later on

Congrats guys!

Way to go men

Got parked on the club this morning and made the long walk across about a 100 acre 5 yr old cutover where on the other side drops off into some hardwood creek bottoms where birds like to roost. I’m listening at daybreak and only hear one bird gobbling and he’s way back across the cutover and close to the road. He sounded like a hot bird but damn it was gonna be a journey to get over to him. So I decided even though nothing gobbled down in the bottom I was gonna set up- call and be patient for a hour since I knew they liked the area, and if I struck out Id walk back to truck and go to another gate to chase the one I heard at daylight. Well nothing happened for the hour so I got up and headed out of the bottom, got to top of hill at edge of cutover and yelped a few times as a shot in the dark and one hammered prob 75 yards away. I started into the woods toward him and was standing there trying to decide to close the distance a little more or setup . It didn’t look like anywhere good to set up so I took another step or two in the direction I heard him and outta nowhere he hammered just out of sight all on top of me. I hit the ground crouched with gun ready and he just appeared through the old grew up firebreak and went into strut about 25 yards as I got the bead on his neck and smoked him. It happened so quick but a awesome hunt. If the woods hadn’t been so greened up now I’d never got that close without spooking him. I got called back to work starting Thursday and will be working 6-7 days a week so my season most likely is over. It’s been fun.

You got mutton chops rack hunter?

lol yeah I’m part Wolverine. Just noticed the way the shadows hitting. Now I can’t unsee it. Could be the gray in my gotee

Mattice you having any luck? from what I can gather cchoque, rackhunter, BC reb, and I all have at least 3. Coosa has 2 and should get 3. Maybe we will finish strong. I know my scores aren’t strong, but I’ve nevrr even been on a turkey team that all the members got 3

Me either. I sure hope I can lock down number 3 this weekend. I'm hunting Sat and Sun and plan on calling in sick Monday if the birds are doing good this weekend.

#3 is dead! I can rest easy now

I’m working on #5. I’ll post up scores when I’m done

Got #5

Awesome man! Good job! A buddy and I called out of work together yesterday and hiked about 2 miles into Hollins WMA. We started out at a high spot at the base of the mountain where we could have easily heard birds for 2+ miles and not a peep. It was probably the prettiest and most peaceful morning I have had in the woods though so I wasn't complaining. Looks like Saturday and Sunday are going to be my last hoorah.

Well guys looks like our team is having a great season so far! I talked to mattice via pm and he’s seeing some birds, but I’m not sure if he’s connected. I told him to come check in here. I’m giving it one last hoorah this weekend at my farm, well kinda...... my wife said she wanted to go and try to kill one. So I’ll be guiding but you never know. She usually only likes to hunt for a couple hours then I’ll have the green light.

I completely struck out this weekend. Prob the worst turkey hunt I’ve ever had at the family farm since I started turkey hunting it about 10 years ago. Only heard 1 gobble sat, and saw 1 hen. Only Heard one gobble Sunday, and saw a jake. All and all though it was a good season there with 3 kills, and plenty of birds left alive. Im gonna try and go tomorrow if my buddy will let me go on his land close to the house.

Well guys, I don't know if any of y'all are going out of state but I am done. I think we did pretty dang good, I'm interested to see how we stack up against everyone else.

Well I’m not done. I am going check out some Ga land this afternoon

Looking like I’m done for the season. I didn’t even get to hunt the last week of the season, been workin 7 days a week. I Looked at getting a trip up to Nebraska in May but just isn’t going to happen this year. We had a good team and I’m sure we’ll finish in the top few

I guess Mattice ended up striking out and ghosting us? I haven't seen or heard anything from him since season started.

A sent him a PM a week or 2 ago and told him to come check in on the team. He said he would and was watching a couple gobblers. I’m guessing since he didn’t that he struck out.
